<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

  • Important event in ancient greek history.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

All through the story, Odysseus endeavors to win the support of the divine beings and goddess to enable himself to return home, notwithstanding, he meets obstruction and issues, for example, his group murdering the sun god's dairy cattle, which brings about the opposite they wished from the divine beings, prompting the pulverization of Odysseus' teams and ships.  

Epic poems are generally exceptionally long and they contain a few components of genuine history. That is the case of the ballad Elpenor from the Odyssey.

Why did the author choose to provide this fictional account of Iqbal Masih, who was a real person? Check all that apply.
vladimir1956 [14]

Hello there,

Why did the author choose to provide this fictional account of Iqbal Masih, who was a real person? Check all that apply.

Story:

My first impression was that he was handsome. Then I thought, No, he isn't really good-looking. But he had such eyes. They were sweet and deep and they weren't afraid. He was standing at the threshold of the workroom with Hussain Khan's enormous hand gripping his arm and we were all looking at him. The fourteen of us child-slaves plus Karim, all observing another slave. He was one of the many who had come and gone over the years, but we felt that somehow, this new boy was different. He looked around at us, one by one. He was sad, of course, like anyone who has been away from home for a long time, like anyone who is little more than a slave, like anyone who can't imagine what will become of him.

Answers:

since some of these details are not known

to interpret and share real events

to bring Iqbal to life through descriptive detail and dialogue

to add details, such as characters' thoughts and feelings, to the story

to engage the reader by sharing his point of view about the topic
